Hi everyone!!
RockOn is a music player for Android and its main goal is to innovate on the UI side. To those of you who don't know it you can check it at http://abrantix.org/rockon.php.
Now comes the time where I'd like to expand the dev team, as I cannot do it all by myself . There's a lot of things to improve or fix and to make RockOn the best player I need help. In a first phase im planning to open the code to a small number of devs that will help me clean up the code and fix some of the most important bugs (right now the code is pretty ugly in some parts, and there are all sorts of architectural problems in the app structure). In a second phase RockOn would be completely open sourced to the whole community.
Also, RockOn currently has a 'donate' version, which I will make free as soon as this kicks-off. This will be a community project on the long run, thus not-for-profit.
So, if there are devs around interested in contributing please drop me an email (filipe.abrantes _at; gmail.com).
twitter for updates:

Cheers,
Filipe
Nice apps, really like the design and the album art, hope somebody will be interest to be part of this dev.
Wow I really do like the interface. I would be willing to help out, but it looks like you want really active developers for the first phase and I don't think I can commit for that. But of course if you don't mind having people making small fixes and passing them in sporadically I can help there.
I did notice a bug while searching for mp3s using non-ascii characters (specifically Chinese). I'm wondering if the like search in the sql database is even unicode aware.
Code:
07-23 04:36:44.897: INFO/SEARCH(2319): title LIKE '%我 %' OR artist LIKE '%我 %'
Regardless, hopefully you find some people who can push your app along quickly!
love your app, can only get better...
... and xda is the place to find developers who will make it happen. RockOn! is my default fall back app when HTCMusic doesn't work. I've had some issues with lag and FCs occasionally but I must admit, running RockOn on cyanogen's experimental build 3.9 with compcache and a backing_swap partition seems rock-solid. I used it all night and it was really smooth, only one hiccup and it passed NP. So great work fabrantes, I look forward to seeing what this community can do to make your app even better.
i was thinking it was weird that there is a lack of development of open source apps... especially essential stuffs like music and video players..... group development etc.... instead of relying on htc apps (closed sourced).
Unless i am not aware of such stuff

hi overpower, yes for this first phase I'd prefer to get a smaller group of people that are willing to commit to the project, deadlines and such. But we'll see how this evolves. I did not state this before, but this call also applies to designers.
i would be willing to help with design work, especially if you plan on adding widgets.

Yep, right now it has one widget but it is really a knock-off of the standard player's widget. Would be very nice to have a more advanced one. Drop me an email.
Where do I sign up?
Was thinking about building my own mp3 but your player pretty much rocks.
I use it all the time on my g1. I rather contribute and help to improve it.
I can help in the design & coding.
cool! send me an email (filipe.abrantes / gmail.com). ill be setting up a google project in the next couple of days.

I'd strongly suggest making your widget take up the whole screen and provide a lot of function. That way you could slide over to your music player and then slide back.
bought this on the market earlier, and got a refund saying item discontinued
its free now , re-download it
ah ok, that sorted that, now would there be a reason that im not getting the transparent background?
Good luck man! I see your point of view. It's really weird that essential apps aren't being made and improved open source style on Android. I salute you!

Translucent background was removed back somewhere in v1.2.x for performance reasons. The UI would get really laggish. I thought of making it an option, but never got the time to really put it in place.
Really hoping that RockOn evolves...it has alot of potential, but at the moment I use TuneWiki... smooth interface (although not as flashy), integrated lyric search, community interaction, etc... TuneWiki would be a good template for features to integrate into RO.

That would be fine for most of us since we have 5 screens (or however if using rogros launcher) so we have extras screens. Everyone else out there has only 3 screens and probably using it atleast alittle big. So if you would really want a full screen widget then you'd also need a smaller one as a second option.
a full screen widget would be really nice. Would be great if you could get it to play similar music like mixzing does or the itunes genius playlist.
fabrantes - Really like your music player. Awesome creativity and functionality with your app.
I use an HTC adapter to plug in my headphones and it has a button I can press twice to skip to the next song
On the default music player I can press the button once and it pauses the song.
It would be cool if you might add that to your app as well.
Thanks again awesome app.
Hi everyone!
This is my first app in the market (after I created some apps but didn't uploaded them).
This app used to track the salary of people who work on shifts.
As a teenager I was working in many different places and the number of shifts that I was working every month wasn't constant, so as my salary.
When I wanted to track my salary I needed to track it in Excel tables, which is very annoying!
So I created this app for people that are just like me.
Very simple! You create a workplace -> fill the salary field in the settings -> whenever you arrive to work you press check in and when you leave you press check out.
And to make it even simpler it even has a widget!
And you can also backup/restore your data, that you won't lose it (And can easily flash new roms on your device ).
So go on and install the app,
And if you have suggestions, feedbacks, bug reports and anything else you can tell me here/pm me/send an email to [email protected].
And you can also like the app's Facebook page and share it with your friends!

Thanks and enjoy this app!

Great App!
Best app ever!... good job!
Great app thanks for your work
Sent from my GT-I9001 using Tapatalk
Really nice app. Thanks for creating it.
Thanks a lot guys!!
A new update 1.1.3.1 which includes fix in salary calculation when you using days with different salary and your shift ended in other week.
If you had any problem with calculation, you are welcome to try this version
Elad
Hey everybody,
Version 1.1.4 is up!
Added some new cool features
1. Viewing shifts in weekly view.
2. Watching your shifts ascending or descending way.
3. You can create future shifts manually.
4. Little bug in calculation.
Enjoy and have a nice weekend!
Great App!
just downloaded it and its a great app! i actually thought of doing this but never did lol
a request, as i dont get paid for lunch hours, is there a way to incorporate that into the app? saves me having to alter the hours i worked
Thanks ! great workk
Looks like a great app, but I think it would look better if you just did the background a solid color rather than those stripes.
checking this out now
Thanks a lot, I'm happy to hear that you like my app..

When you press check in, a toggle button that says "working" is revealed, when you press it, the text changes to "On break" and this time won't count on the final salary calculation. Enjoy!

Hey, I already tried but the app look very empty.. Maybe in the future I will add an option for themes for those who don't get along with this background..
this looks really handy, great idea. The current setup can really only handle my base pay because i have a somewhat complex pay plan.
I earn bonus amounts of cash for selling various things, can you make it so you can add on different amounts on different shifts?, I'd wanna be able to add that on after the fact or during the shift if it makes any difference.
If you wanted to go even farther out, adding some kinda system for handling commissions, like enter the dollar value for a given shift, and calculate a set percentage as commission to add to the hourly rate.
Hey beddess,
People already asked me about bonuses.. It will be added in the future..
cool, bonuses (we call them spiffs, special incentives) are the more important one i was asking for. I get those fairly regularly.
Commission comes into play less for me, i have to consistently do good all week; plus our commission system is complex enough system that i only dimly understand our plan. So, even if you jump on the idea it might be hard to model the plan.
I've been working a lot of slow shifts so with hourly + bonuses it'll model things pretty well for me.
Hey everyone!
After a long time, I've released a new version with some pretty cool new features!
You are welcomed to check the new version out and also Like the app's Facebook page.
You can ask questions, suggest things and share it with your friends!

Hi, I recently took an Android Development at my school where I made this Flashcards Study App.
There's still a lot of work I want to complete before I call it finished, but it's a good start I think. I still want to add more quizlet functionality to it (since quizlet.com doesn't seem to have an android app yet.)
Download the App!
Some features:
* Offline Mode to study on the go without an internet connection.
* Adjust card flip speeds in the settings menu
* Long press on a deck to view options
* Shuffle your flashcards
* Search Quizlet to access millions of flashcard sets.
* Edit, Delete, and Create new flashcards with a breeze
* Text-to-speech integration
* Multi-language support
* Identify your strengths and weaknesses by keeping track of how well you know a card.
* Reverse Question and Answer sides on cards
* Improved UI
EDIT:
I attached an apk that you guys can use since I can't seem to post a link to the play store.
Or alternatively, You can search for "CardCloud FlashCards" in the play store to get the official app.
I'd recommend it since I'm planning on pushing a lot of new features in the upcoming weeks.
Thanks!

Hey. Sorry. It doesn't seem to let me post links since I'm a new member.
Here's an uploaded APK file you can use in the meantime
Or you can search for "CardCloud Flashcards" in the play store if you want the official version.
Thanks for trying it out!
Definitely let me know if you run into any problems.
So far nice ui
Works good. Is it possible to share own decks with friends? It would be amazing, also an option for read only and read write permissions for shared decks.

Thanks for the compliments!
Sharing is definitely a feature i'm going to be adding in the feature. Right now i'm torn between integrating some sort of facebook social network to allow for easier sharing. I've been busy trying to learn Ruby on Rails Development and Android Dev at the same time, so the cardcloud website is a bit lacking at the moment. But Sharing is definitely a big feature I want to implement.
Currently I'm in the middle of adding an ability for users to mark each card as easy/hard and then creating an infinite shuffle that will have a smart algorithm to show difficult cards more often.
That should be about two weeks out, and then I'll start working on the Deck sharing.
Great suggestion on the Read/Write permissions too! I think that would be an awesome feature, I've written it down on my notepad, so definitely stay tuned to this thread for any updates I make!
Thanks for trying out my app!
Redesign Icon
Hey buddy I think this app is great for studying and for group activities. Love what you have done. I also like the UI I made this icon for you just cuz i like messing around with Photoshop haha hope you like it
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Byxlw5J4qbOvTWhEWnlrbFBna2M
Full icon without background or text: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0Byxlw5J4qbOvOEV2U1FEWkVfWXM
Hi. Great app. Is it possible to manually edit or create a set on a PC and transfer / open / import into the application?
A quick way of implementing this might be to add CSV or XML export and import?
Perhaps a link up to Google docs for cloud storage and on line editing?
Also, would you consider the addition of images on the flip cards? Perhaps a HTML format would make this easy to implement? A picture paints a thousand words and all...
Keep up the good work and I hope its a great success.
Steve.
**************************** [Edit] ****************************
Opening a quizlet with images renders nothing visible on the card
Steps to reproduce...
1. Search 2010 Honda Cars
2. Select any of the results
3. See the text (e.g. "2010 Honda civic") but on clicking the card to see the flip side - there is nothing.
Here is what is should look like... http://quizlet.com/1935486/2010-honda-cars-flash-cards/
**************************** [/Edit] ***************************
CardCloud - Flash Cards
CardCloud,
Great effort thus far ... you've added the ability to create card sets! This is HUGE.
Some tips I hope you're able to fix in the coming updates, please.
1. Settings - there should really only be on 'settings' button for the app (the vertical elipses button; top right/bottom right corners).
2. Logon - should be a little more clear "what" service the logon pertains to.
- I thought the ability to logon to Quizlet would work with this ?? I'm an Android newb and I've already realized things are "assumed/presumed" to be known to new users, which its not clear on many applications or the OS itself.
3. KEEP the "skip logon" this is critical and I've come across many notes type apps that I cannot even create a note when in the subway because they require a persistent internet connection = total pain in the ass and useless! You've got a good thing going with this "skip logon" ability please KEEP IT Much appreciated.

Thanks! I'm planning on adding that feature pretty soon. Right now I'm on the verge of adding support for marking cards as either correct or incorrect. Also I'm adding in an in-app purchase to remove ads. I've also been working on the website portion of my app (cardcloud.net) which will allow you to upload your local decks onto a website (once you create an account) once it's uploaded, you'll be able to export from the site.
That's still a work in progress, hopefully in a week or two, I'll have that ready for you.
In the meantime, you can expect an update for marking the correctness of each card in the next day or two!
Thanks for the compliments, and thanks for trying out my app!

Hey! Supa_Fly, thanks for the kind words.
I really like the idea of the skip button for logins. The reason the login is there is to allow users to sync their decks with the website portion of the app. (CardCloud.net) But I've been busy working on the app and haven't had a chance to get the webapplication completed yet. Hopefully in the next week or two You'll be able to backup your local decks/cards onto a website, where you can save them on a computer.
The settings functionality is a bit confusing, so I've done a bit of tinkering with it to make it more intuitive to use. Thanks for the suggestions though! I really appreciate the feedback.
In the meantime, I'm working on a v1.2 release which will allow users to mark cards as either correct/incorrect/half-correct/etc, to help with remembering your learning progression. Keep an eye out for that. Hopefully I'll be able to push that up to the google store by tomorrow. I'll also update this thread once that's complete!
Thanks again for trying my app!
Hey. Just uploaded an update to the current App on the Appstore.
Some New features:
* Identify your strengths and weaknesses by keeping track of how well you know a card. Mark a card as Correct/Incorrect/etc
* Reverse Question and Answer sides on cards
* Improved UI
* Settings AutoSave when changed, rather than having to hit a save button
* When Viewing a Deck from Quizlet, download the deck directly from the cardview for your convenience.
* Change your settings (flipspeed and question/answer reversal) from the cardview.

Hi, my girlfriend wrote out 20 sets as study for her exam on Wednesday. Her phone updated your app and it seems her card sets have been deleted (or lost). :crying:
Is your new updated version deleting user inputted card sets?
I'd greatly appreciate a quick response if you have a way to retrieve them.
PS, where are the card sets saved? In files (what location in phone)? Perhaps we can retrieve them manually?
Thanks, Steve.
Hey sd00, I'm really really really sorry that happened.
I found a bug in my code that was clearing the sqlite DB on updates.
I fixed the bug, but unfortunately it looks like her cards have been wiped.
This is embarrassing, I'm a noob and didn't realize that would happen.
There's nothing I can do, but promise it won't happen again.
For what it's worth, If I sent you guys an ad free version of that app, would that help?
Again, I'm really sorry, let me know what I can do to try to make it better.
I'm working on the ability to create decks online and then sync them to your phone, so hopefully that'll make it easier in the future to recreate the decks.
(If you'd like, you can even send me the questions/answers and I'll type them back up for her myself.
if you pm me an email address, I can send you an apk for the free version too.
Again, I apologize for my noobness.
For such a new app - this was an unforeseen mistake by the developer. The fact that he's VERY apologetic and this app does offer some great features over the competition I'll still support this app!
As experience is gained and more testing directly by the developer we'll this app continually excel and grow in feature sets and less bugs. Not many people appreciate developers' hard work and even less developers are as humble as this one.

Hey Supa_Fly, thanks for the kind words and support! It's been a lot of fun working on this app and I've learned a lot from the experience. Hopefully as I improve, so will the app. Sorry again to sd00 for the bug. I spent a few days testing and retesting to make sure it wouldn't happen again before I pushed up the newest update this afternoon.
I've been working on the syncing functionality the last week or so and I got it finally working the way I wanted. Not 100% yet, but allowing users to create their decks online I think is a necessary feature, since writing out individual cards on a phone is a pain. I'd like to tweak it a bit to make syncs work faster/better, but I'm slightly limited by my web server since it's a bit slow. Hopefully if I can generate any revenue through the app, I'll be able to put it towards faster servers. I'll keep an eye on the bug log to make sure nothing goes awry though.
I've pushed the new features up onto CardCloud.net allowing users to login to their accounts and create their cards online. Also, I uploaded the app updates to the google play store so users should be able to get the updated app with fixed functionality. Hopefully I didn't mess anything up this time .
In the meantime, I have a couple new features in the pipes that I'm working on that I think should improve the app. Hopefully I'll be able to get these pushed out in the upcoming weeks:
- Image support for flashcards. Definitely a top priority feature, should have an update for this within the next few weeks.
- Rich Text Editing. Another top level feature I want for the app.
- Better Quizlet integration. Search for usernames, and returning public decks, recently studied, etc
Anyways, sorry for the wall of text. When I get new features implemented for this app, I will post them here.
Development stops?

Hello all!
This is my first post on this forum so if I'm posting this in the wrong place, let me know! I would like to show off my latest Android App that I've been working on for the last few months. It has been a long path of changes, changes, and more changes! I've really enjoyed how far I've come with learning development. So here it is!
Planets is a educational app that is centered around providing users with information about the planets in our solar system. It also has info about other objects like the Sun and Pluto. I recently redesigned the app to make the content easier to scan and make it a little more fluid like. I have a community[1] set up with Beta testing for the people who want to test stuff before it's released to the public. I am looking to gain a larger user base but my main goal is just making the app look nice and easy to use. You can download[2] it on the Play Store and feedback/ratings are appreciated. So far, I've got about 1,400 downloads and I'm hoping to get more! Also, you can view the full source code for this app[3]!
See attachments for screenshots.

Wonderful application, always been an admirer of Astronomy and this is just brilliantly put together. Will come back with a decent feedback soon .
I know it is easy to pick on any application but knowing how much effort might have gone in does help (through your github post).
Is it possible to convert the given units into scientific units (e.g. mass of sun = 1.9891 * 10^30 kg)?
Hi, I'm a fan of astronomy but I'm also a graphic, web-designer/developer... I love you app and, if it is possibile, I want to make some themes for this app!
Very nice app. Informative and yet easy on the eye. Looking forward to further updates.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm always up for more astronomy. Great work, keep it up. :good:
Very nice! Love the UI, looks very intuitive.
Some suggestions:
- use translucent bars on KitKat
- make the back animation consistent with the open animation. For example, when you tap a planet, the card zooms in to fill the screen; but when you hit Back, the screen kind of fades away (the default Android exit animation). It would be nice if it zooms back out.
- like @orville87 said, it would be easier on the eyes to express the units in scientific notation.
- Pluto isn't a planet anymore, right?
I would have asked for info on extraterrestrial moons, but it would seem too outrageous a request.

I am looking to gain a larger user base but my main goal is just making the app look nice and easy to use. You can download[2] it on the Play Store and feedback/ratings are appreciated. So far, I've got about 1,400 downloads and I'm hoping to get more! Also, you can view the full source code for this app[3]!
See attachments for screenshots.

nice
Not enough information. Can you tell me how is this app better than the others universe related apps in Google Play? I appreciate your effort but if you want your app to be competitive he should add more features or at least more info because the info included here is common and can be found in wikipedia for example. There are also apps who also provide 3D model of the solar system with the orbits of all planets.
I'm not trying to offend you, don't get me wrong.

For being a high school student and balancing life and school and this, I take pride in the work that I've done. Sure there are better apps than mine with more info and awesome 3D renderings of planets, I'm not afraid to admit that. However, I'm proud of the work I've done and if people don't recognize that it IS work from a high school student and not some average middle-aged developer, then so be it. Thanks for your feedback :good:

As I said in the beginning of my post I appreciate what you do because I love astronomy and physics so it's good beginning and I'm not hating. But yet you needed something to stimulate you to develop your app. I wish you all best and I'm sure that you'll keep developing this app until it becomes competitive to all the apps out there.
Hello everyone! Thanks for visiting my thread. This is the first time I have published my app on Google Play Store, so if you find it useful for you, or if you can leave your review after using it, I would really, really appreciate!
As you know, there are tons of calculator app on Play Store, and I know it is really hard for my calculator to compete with them. However, I had a dream of making my own calculator the first time I saw Android, so after long-learning process, I finally made it. This is a big project, not simple as it might seems at first

I hope you enjoy it, and I will try my best to update it frequently if there is any bug left.
Thanks.
Hello I have tried your app on my Xiaomi mi5s but when I press the numbers I do not see them displayed on the on the screen.
It does not work in my device for any of your calculators (Standard Calculator/Programmer Calculator)
In terms of design the app looks pretty good!

Thank you for trying my app and your compliment!
It seems strange that some devices run properly and others does not, although they have the same Android version. Well, it is hard to tell exactly why right now, but I am trying to fix it as soon as possible.
